Ha! Me too man! Though it was usually my brother doin it to me!

RIP Randy Savage. By far and away one of the greats. It was his era that I began watching rasslin. Him with Elizabeth.

I never knew Leaping Lanny Poffo was his brother. Silly I find this out on the day of Randy's death, after both of them being part of my earliest wrestling memories.

When you look at those outfits, it's just hillarious. Wrestling is an interesting blend of hyper-masculinity and subversive femininity. I mean, nowadays, we have conservative groups bitching about mothers who paint their sons finger nails pink, because somehow associations with pink will make the kid weak or gay....hahahaha. Look at the frinkin' wrestling most of North America's youth grew up watching!
